Sometimes you’ll hear people say that you can’t love others until you love yourself. Sometimes you’ll hear people say that you can’t expect someone else to love you until you love yourself. Either way, you’ve got to love yourself first and this can be tricky. Sure we all know that we’re the apple of our parents’ eyes, and that our Grandmas think we’re great talents and our Uncle Roberts think that we will go to the Olympics. but sometimes it’s a lot harder to think such nice thoughts about ourselves. If you find that believing in yourself is a challenge. it is time you build a positive self-image and learn to love yourself.
Self-image is your own mind’s picture of yourself. This image includes the way you look, the way you act, the way you talk and the way you think. Interestingly, our self-images are often quite different from the images others hold about US. Unfortunately, most of these images are more negative than they should be. Thus changing the way you think about yourself is the key to changing your self-image and your whole world.
The best way to defeat a passive self-image is to step back and decide to stress your successes. That is, make a list if you need to, but write down all of the great things you do every day. Don’t allow doubts to occur in it.
It very well might be that you are experiencing a negative self-image because you can’t move past one flaw or weakness that you see about yourself. Well, roll up your sleeves and make a change of it as your primary task. If you think you’re silly because you aren’t good at math, find a tutor. If you think you’re weak because you can’t run a mile, get to the track and practice. If you think you’re dull because you don’t wear the latest trends, buy a few new clothes. But remember, just because you think it doesn’t mean it’s true.
The best way to get rid of a negative serf-image is to realize that your image is far from objective, and to actively convince yourself of your positive qualities. Changing the way you think and working on those you need to improve will go a long way towards promoting a positive self-image. When you can pat(拍) yourself on the back, you’ll know you’re well on your way. Good luck!

Ⅴ. 读写任务(共一小题，满分25分)
I 've been in New York City for six months. As far as I know, New York City is one of the most popular cities in the world. The city was famous for its financial, landmarks, architectures and sports etc. In contrast to New York City, my native city in China is small and undeveloped. I can tell it just by taking a look at the education in New York City.
Education in New York City is different from my hometown. Firstly, many famous universities and colleges such NYU, Columbia University, SUNY and CUNY etc are located here. While my hometown owns zero university. Secondly, New York City keeps providing free education, lunch and metrocard for students until they finish high school. Thirdly, the teaching methods are free and creative. In New York City, the teacher won't teach you all the details about the solution, they're just give you some examples and you yourself finish the rest.
Now I really enjoy living in America.
